Yeah I do man. But it’s a 700 footprint, so it’ll be a while I think. They have a pile of tikka inlets to fill
Thought they were different molds?

Good input on tested BC. AB had the 109s measured down around 0.282 IIRC so interesting to hear they tested a bit better than that for you.

You’re probably right. I didn’t follow the thread too closely on the molds and stuff.

Yeah I shot a pretty solid 9 shot zero at 100 yards and then drove straight to 1000 yards. Conditions were good as well.

Could always be some small errors in the mechanics of optics or me personally causing higher impacts as well.

thanks for sharing the info. I enjoy reading about your different rifle adventures. 6 prc is cool option. if you estimate 20-25 fps/in you'd be about 3,220 on a 20" barrel, so about 100 fps slower than a 6 um. most of those guys are getting 3,350? not too shabby
plugged it into recoil calc and was 14.8 ft lbs. for reference same calc puts 6.5 creed w/ 140 eldm at 11.3, 6.5 prc w/ 140 at 17, and a 7 prc w/ 180 at 24 ft lbs (9.5lb rifle)
at 5k ft elevation: for 10 mph wind drift w/ g7 of .295 for the 109 at 3300 fps, at 600 yards only 0.28" more wind drift vs 7 prc with 180 eldm at 2850 fps

No problem at all dude! Its half the fun that keeps me occupied in the off season.

Yeah pretty good performance with N570.

I think once I shoot up all this stuff I have loaded with H1000, I’ll switch it over to N570 for hunting season just for the hell of it lol
